The incidents took place at The Oracle shopping centre on Monday, 1 December 2025. Officers report that a man followed multiple women through the store, and in two separate cases, allegedly touched them inappropriately. When confronted by one of the victims, the suspect reportedly fled the store.


Police have now released CCTV images of the man, asking the public for help in identifying him. Thames Valley Police emphasise the importance of anyone who recognises the individual coming forward to assist with the investigation.


“We are keen to speak with anyone who was in the TK Maxx on 1 December and may have seen this man. Any information, no matter how small, could help us locate him and prevent further incidents,” said a Thames Valley Police spokesperson.


The first victim has not yet come forward to make a formal statement, and officers are particularly keen to hear from her to ensure her safety and wellbeing.


Anyone with information is urged to contact Thames Valley Police on 101, quoting reference 43250614037, or report anonymously through Crimestoppers.


This case highlights the importance of vigilance in busy public spaces and the role of the community in helping police identify suspects.
